I'm only telling you how, why, and when, I feel that sense of the numinous. It's your problem, entirely, if you don't get that from any of those things. You do realize that you don't actually get to characterize -my experience-, yes? If you feel that your ridiculous beliefs are threatened in any way by non theists having this sense..well...tough titties. We do, and commonly so.
We have all of the same...human...experiences that you do, we just don't believe in gods. There is no need of reference to gods in human experiences, just as there is no need of reference to gods in objective moral systems.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
